 | Comments: |
We started a south to north bound Moat Mountain traverse today and ended up having a great day for it. The rain from the night before cleared up and the sun broke through giving us mostly dry rocks and ledges. There certainly were a few spots to be careful on with wet patches. Only ran into about six folks the whole time -nice and quiet ( of course until we got closer to Diana’s Baths). Incredible views, awesome trail, and a great way to spend a day in the White’s with our pups. |
